Swollen Gums
Gums play an important role in maintaining the oral health. The gums are made of firm, pink tissue that covers the jawbone. This tissue is thick, fibrous, and full of blood vessels. Swollen gums are a common problem, and can have a number of different causes. Swollen gum is also called as gingival swelling. They are often irritated, sensitive, or painful. If gums become swollen, they may protrude or bulge out. Swelling in your gums usually begins where the gum meets the tooth. Depending on the severity of inflamed gums, it may leads to one of two types of gum disease like gingivitis and periodontitis. Inflamed gums can quite easily be treated by taking the following steps like improving nutrition, using anti-gingivitis toothpaste, flossing diligently and brushing with soft, nylon bristles to prevent gum damage.
